Uragan Milton stigao je na Floridu u srijedu oko 20.30 sati po lokalnom vremenu, blizu mjesta Siesta Key, južno od Tampe, s maksimalnom brzinom vjetra od oko 200 kilometara na sat, javio je CNN. Uragan će nastaviti izazivati po život opasne bujične poplave, kišu i razorne vjetrove, kako u blizini tako i daleko od mjesta gdje je središte uragana došlo na obalu Floride. Značajno upozorenje na bujične poplave koje su opasne po život, izdano je za gotovo dva milijuna ljudi, a uključuje Tampu, St. Petersburg i Clearwater.
Reporteri CNN-a javili su kako se u Tampi odvodi, kanalizacija i kanali počinju prelijevati, gurajući vodu na ulice, dok su udari vjetra ponekad toliko jaki da tresu zidove i prozore. Najnovija je procjena da je više od 2 milijuna domova i tvrtki ostalo bez struje diljem Floride, navodi BBC. Na društvenim mrežama dijele se snimke s Floride koje prikazuju strašne posljedice uragana.
